For 10 People - Lisbon House São Paulo

Description from the manager

In a neighbourhood which was once an industrial area, in a fully restored 19th. Century building, we have this ideal apartment - Lisbon São Paulo House - for an unforgettable stay in Lisbon.

The São Paulo House was refurbished recently and is completely new. The décor is elegant and sophisticated, halfway between classic and contemporary. The owners took care in bringing indoors "bits" of Lisbon, in paintings and artifacts that portray typical aspects of the city.

It is situated in a culturally very rich area, where different epochs, influences and artistic disciplines mingle. You can either visit the National Museum of Ancient... Art or attend a concert at Teatro Aberto, or stroll among the stalls of Mercado da Ribeira produce market, where you find Lisbon´s freshest vegetables and hear the inimitable cry of its vendors.

This is the "Design District"! Besides the great international design shops, the neighbourhood of Santos is also the centre of nightlife activity, with several bars and discos to suit all tastes. It lies a few minutes on foot from Bairro Alto, where you find the trendiest places of Lisbon's current nightlife.

The location is also ideal to go out in the light of the sun! It is situated between the 18th. Century Pombaline downtown and the Belém area, with public transport on hand and at a short distance from the places you must visit.Read more

Additional Location Information

In area which was previously an industrial site has been progressively occupied by artists, training schools and shops, with creativity being the key-word. Santos, next to the Tagus river, close to Cais do Sodré, is year after year developing into a trendy neighbourhood.

In December 2006, faced with the fact that it had become " a design quarter", economic agents (some of the capital's most important design shops) joined together to created the "Santos Design District": a brand with national and international projection aimed at dynamizing the quarter. Without excesses and with elegance.

There are several schools of design, architecture, audiovisual arts, jewellry: ETIC, IADE, UAL. Architecture and design studios, advertising and audiovisual art companies also settled here. And then we have the shops. Vitra, Kartell, Boffi and Bulthaup are represented in Santos.

Another reason for people to flock to Santos is its nightlife. On 24 de Julho avenue (one of Lisbon's longest and most well-known avenues), every other door is a bar or a disco. Not only here. There is guaranteed bustle at "Xafarix", with live music (Rua Dom Carlos I, 69) at "Kubo" Bar (Rua da Cintura) and at "Urban Beach", at "Estado Líquido", great sushi lounge with DJ (Largo de Santos 5A); if you enjoy Thai and alternative places, go to Café Malaca, at the Clube de Remo de Lisboa (cais do gás, armazém H, 1º) and at "Mao" (Avenida 24 de Julho, 116). The disco "Kapital" (Avenida 24 de Julho, 68) is one of Lisbon's most popular nightspots. The entry can be highly disputed, but once you cross the gate the music makes you forget the waiting.

At "A Barraca" Theatre (Largo de Santos,2), besides watching plays, you can have a drink. During Summer, the verandah is specially inviting. In the theatre house, they hold concerts, poetry readings and milongas (Argentine tango marathons on Sundays). On Sundays you can also drop at the Collectors' Fair in Mercado da Ribeira (Avenida 24 de Julho).

Still in Santos, visit the Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga, old art museum, with its garden and restaurant with a splendid view of the river (Rua das Janelas Verdes), the Museu da Marioneta, puppet museum, (at Convento das Bernardas, Rua da Esperança, 146), and the Nuno Álvares or Santos Garden, an oasis of dense flora.
